Baldur’s Gate 3 NPC Names with Hilarious Double Meanings

The “appropriate”double entendres of several NPCs’ names have been uncovered by players of Baldur’s Gate 3.

As the recipient of Game of the Year, Baldur’s Gate 3 has astounded players globally with its intricate plot — and this revelation elevates the experience even further. Certain characters in Baldur’s Gate 3 are incredibly unlikable for various reasons and, interestingly enough, their names accurately reflect the animosity they provoke.

Kagha is one of the first NPCs players encounter in the first Act when they go to the Grove. During a series of cutscenes, Kagha is shown harassing a Tiefling child for stealing, which left a negative impression on many players.

After a player on Reddit noticed that Kagha’s name sounds similar to “caga”in Portuguese, which translates to “to sh**,”it was pointed out that this is fitting for her character in the game. As a tyrannical woman who shows no mercy, even towards innocent children, the accuracy of her name was noted by the original poster.

Nevertheless, there are some players who do not share the belief that Kagha is a negative character.

One person explained that compared to other characters, she is not as bad. Initially, she had good intentions, but fear caused them to become distorted. As a result, she turned into a cruel individual. However, once her actions were brought to her attention, she immediately accepted responsibility and backed down.

The discussion about alternate interpretations inspired other gamers to translate even more NPCs’ names into various languages. One well-known character, Cazador Szarr, also has a name that can be associated with the word “sh**”in Hungarian, as seen in a comment thread on Reddit.

Although not all characters in Baldur’s Gate 3 have names that mock them, there are some exceptions. For instance, a user highlighted that Aylin, a temporary companion encountered in Act 2, has a Turkish origin meaning “moon halo”. This name is fitting as Aylin is the daughter of Selûne, the goddess of the moon.

Despite the unknown intentions behind the naming of these NPCs, the Easter eggs are still a source of entertainment and enjoyment to uncover.
